Prerequisites

1. Python 3
2. Conda (the instructions assume you use conda, but venv works too. activate env and download deps accordingly)

Prep

1. Generate Open AI API key.
2. Create Discord bot as documented in the Step 2 - Create a simple discord bot section here[https://www.infraspec.dev/blog/building-a-discord-gpt-bot/] and copy bot token.

Running the bot

1. Clone the repository.
2. Ensure you have python 3 and conda installed on your machine.
3. Modify the keys in the env-sample.
4. Rename env-sample -> .env
5. Create the conda virtual environment for the bot from the environment configuration - conda env create -f environment.yml
6. Activate the environment with conda activate discord-bot. All dependencies should be installed only within the virtual environment.
